sst45 electric fuel pump

[Gilbert381]

Hey BRF members, I'm in the last stage of finishing my 45 and one thing
I'm wondering is what type of electric fuel pump to get and where. I've come across
some standard ones at an auto parts store but they don't recommend
It for marine use. Any suggestions from the racing crowd?

Hey Gilbert,
Its not necessary to use a fuel pump on the 45. There has been a few people that have tried them and its more of a hassell than its worth. I wouldnt.

Hey Scott, thanks for the insight. Out of educational curiosity, what did you run
on your revolution 45? Was it a standard primer bulb? That's what mine has currently
and I'm trying to find out how to keep it primed without that bulb.

The engine should have a electric primer set up that works from the ignition switch. We just pump the bulb firm once a day, and then hit the primer a few times on cold starts only.

Just what COR711 said. :cool:
